Killer whales are actually the largest dolphin not a whale. Smaller dolphins do this too to even smaller dolphins/porpoises. They can be meanies!

Obviously a turf war going on amongst rival gangs.......
“hippos are vicious.”
I was under the impression that they wore tutu’s and danced in a circle like they did in Walt Disney’s “Fantasia.”
>> People are really, really stupid.
You should read the story of the “Grizzly Man”, Timothy Treadwell.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timothy_Treadwell
There’s a movie about him called “Grizzly Man”. He was a severely disturbed individual — nature-lover, got along better with animals than with humans ... complete wacko. He apparently thought he had developed an understanding with a group of Alaskan grizzly bears over his 12-years of Alaskan photography expeditions ... until one attacked him and his girlfriend and ate them both.

Saw some idiot flatlanders do the same thing with a moose calf in the Big Horn mountains in Wyoming.
And no, it didn’t bite anyone’s sister.
That is HORRIBLE ! Not Bambi ! LOL
That’s like Bambi meets Godzilla.
Yeah. That, too. One could always use the wheeled surfboards with the sails on them, but then you'd have to worry about hitting things like sage, cacti, sofas, rusted cars, and the occasional corpse.
She wasn't budging, and we couldn't drive around her. My guess is that there was a calf somewhere nearby.
Eventually (when the calf was safe, I'd imagine), she moved off to the side of the road and let us through. I wasn't going to get out and try for any photos, though.
Moose are thick, up in the North Woods. They used to amble through our fishing camp occasionally. It was a bit troublesome; I was worried that they'd step on someone.
The only thing that was biting up there, though, was the blackflies.
I’ve seen the FR articles on “Grizzly Man”. Read them, and said: “Yup, Darwin was right.”
Bring on the Japanese! “F*** you dolpheen! and F** you Whaaale!”
(see South Park Season 13 “Whale Whores”, hilarous!!)
Had a wild boar do that in Germany. He stood sidways in the middle of the road as a roadguard until the heard passed, then stayed and extra couple of seconds as if giving us the finger, then strolled off.
Al Gore blamed it on Global Warming.
"Because I can."
This is what global warming has done to the sea and its creatures.
The whales need some dolphin-flavored-tofu-meat-like substitute.
A deer did exactly the same thing to me here in Pennsylvania. It stood in the middle of the road looking straight at me until I stopped. Then, three fawns darted across the road and the big doe followed.
And Obama's election as President serves to confirm your view.
I just think the orcas wanted some tuna-free dolphin.
Saw something similar once while fishing on a levee/dyke at Loxahatchee on the edge of the Glades in S. Palm Beach county.
Tour bus arrives and sun burned tourists spill out for a quick look at the Everglades. One guy tells his 5 yr old boy to get closer to the water because he can’t get the 10’ gator in the shot too, the way the kid is standing...when I fished there I kept a .44 loaded with hollow points for just in case’, illegal at the time, but better than the alternatives.
